Happy Easter

One of my family's traditions is to make a lamb shaped pound cake for Easter.

There was a time when we bought these cakes from the local bakery but then one year Grandma bought a mold and a new tradition was born!

When my first child was born I inherited the mold and began a quest for the perfect Lamb Cake. The pound cake recipe I had never quite worked - either too dry or didn't rise enough or fell apart. Always something! I have tried umpteen different recipes but every year I have had a different problem.

NOT THIS YEAR!

This year the only thing we have had to deal with is UGLY.

I can deal with ugly!

This years cake is moist, it stayed upright and tastes absolutely delicious!

I also found a fabulous frosting recipe - not too heavy, not too sweet. Just YUM.
